Lol. @Castavar I’m with you man. I don’t feel good about it, but F these guys who get all pissed when we talk drafts. I was 100% right about not wanting to re-sign Short last year. I was 100% right that we should have gone full rebuild to get a rookie QB. I was 100% right during the draft to say we should have gone more OL heavy.

Nah, let’s feel better about going 5-11 and losing a 3rd for Bradberry and wasting $70M. Now we can throw another $50M in wasted cap (Sam, Robby, Erving and Elflein). It sucks to feel like we lost all that cap and a ton of draft picks in comp picks for Teddy/Weatherly and trading for Sam and CJ. We gave up a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th in the 2021 and 2022 drafts.

imagine if we had a rookie QB, $100M in cap and 5 more draft picks. We’d feel way better.

 But that “winning culture” was soooo important. LOL

Another year. Another expected performance that destroys the future instead of planning for it. It’s a pleasure watching the “echo chamber” get cracked wide open.

I admit, Rhule was the guy I wanted. I believed in him. Seemed like a real football savvy guy. I got a little worried when he hired all College Coaches. Then i got a little worried when he started signing all former players of his. Then i gave a pass last season. First season plus COVID and all that jazz. Got a little puzzled by the Darnold move, but I went along and hoped for the best. At this point I'm about as close as possible to jumping off the Rhule train. At the end of the day, I just want to win and want football to be fun to watch again. Who knows if or when that will be with this franchise. If Rhule can figure it out, awesome, if it's going to be someone else, I guess we are in for a long wait. I see Rhule getting at least 2 more seasons. No matter what.

I don’t complain but this was completely horrible. Traveled to NY and outside of Donte on defense and the first drive of good running there wasn’t much to cheer for. I wanted to buy my first jersey for the occasion but told myself I needed to see more from this team before investing that and got a hat to appease myself. I won’t be purchasing anything else until we start fielding a better product on the field. 

It’s that bad to me.

And replace him with who ? The pool isn’t so good this year besides it’s still very early, only 1 and almost half a season in with a new gm, who would you prefer ?

Unfortunately they may have missed their opportunity, the past few years there were a lot better candidates when they were in the market. Plenty of retreads available but this team needs a offensive coach who understands this is the NFL and has experience in the NFL.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
